THE CHAPEL OF THE WHITE PENITENTS
Pernes has made a small "secular miracle" with its chapel of White Penance, as it has become a centrepiece of pernoise cultural activity. Located in 1152 on the ruins of a pagan temple dedicated to Diane, she was the first church in the village. Intimately interwoven in the heart of its medieval rampart, it almost disappeared several times during its nine centuries of history. The twentieth and his escapades were almost right from her, exhausting to ruin and the her into the forgotten memory after the opening of the Augustins cultural centre, in another historic church in the city. Priory, chapel, place of catechism, daycare, nursery school, variety room, festive room… It is finally in 2004 that the chapel opens its doors to the public and finds all its youth together with its walls, its soil, its alcoves, its original niches and its two mini chapels.
